Re: *Screams* I can NOT get this frizz under control!!!!!!!! ++

So if Fig causes frizz, is it still okay to cleanse with it, just not to use as a leave in? My hair needs moisture so I'd like to be able to still cleanse with it.

w84WEN, you are very welcome, but I can't take credit for it........I copied it long ago, in case of an RTM shortage :-) But, the RTM 12 oz/2 oz duo has me set for awhile.......so I never made my own.

It seems like I read that Chaz used to make his own RTM for use in his salon, before he made an "official" formula.

I'm in agreement on that BGT oil and SC.......ASAP! He can throw in BGT body products while he's at it!

Just try and see. It should be better when you use another cc as your leave in. Fig, tea tree, and Sam have the highest amounts of glycerin. So, cleanse with fig and then maybe use another cc as your leave in and see what happens. I have been having less frizz using Pom as my leave in.

All very interesting about the glycerin. I just re-read the ingredients in the Suave Macadamia - none.

Does anyone know which WEN formula/s do not have glycerin at all? Or, is this a question for the 800 number? Thanks!

I think they all have at least a small amount of glycerin. Some have glycerin further down on the ingredient list. Fig has the most glycerin followed by sweet almond mint and tea tree. I always use TT as my first cleanse followed by another cc for the second cleanse. The other cc's have glycerin further down on the ingredient list. I think Pom has the least amount of glycerin from the line of core cc's. The seasonals and 613 don't have much either.

Thanks, Hillary! Pom wasn't so great for me, neither was the 613, and I know I tried the earlier seasonals.

Also suffering from humidity issues but wanted to comment to say that I made a new combination of my own home RTM this week. I used WK Watermelon CC, SAM oil and SAM SC. It smells, um, interesting. LOL. In the past I used POM and SAM products and it smelled a lot better. Oh well, that's part of the fun in trying new things!

Redken Curvaceous Shampoo and Conditioner make my curls look smoother and less frizzy.

I just have to add glossing serum (8-10 pumps) and mousse are the only things that help my curls stay curls. I use Fig and I had no idea about glycerin. Thanks for the thought and the recipe. Definitely have to try it!
